Joe Biden’s “you ain’t black” gaffe--referring to black voters who may be considering Donald Trump--is responded to by radio host Charlamagne Tha God, on whose show Biden made this controversial statement. Charlamagne Tha God joins Joy Reid to discuss saying, “It has to come to a point where we stop putting the burden on black voters to show up for Democrats, and start putting the burden on Democrats to show up for black voters.” NEXT: Joe Biden 2020 campaign advisor Karine Jean-Pierre, who just joined the former vice president’s team, addresses the question of whether the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee will pick a black woman as his running mate. Jean-Pierre, who is also an MSNBC analyst, tells Joy Reid, “The campaign needs to hear what it is the base wants.” AND: Coronavirus “pandemic pay” and other provisions that benefit frontline workers in the House HEROES Act are promoted by Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), who tells Joy Reid, “Those workers expose themselves to the virus every day... We owe them this pandemic pay.” PLUS: The coronavirus pandemic’s unequal economic impact is exposing the need for a $25 minimum wage and greater worker protections, activists say. Joy Reid and her panel discuss. THEN: Trump could drag down the Senate GOP in the 2020 election experts predict, as incumbents such as Sen. Lindsey Graham and more Republicans face potent Democratic opponents. FINALLY: The coronavirus pandemic has hit workers such as meatpacking employees, food service personnel, and other low income job holders in a profound way. MSNBC’s Joy Reid and activist Dr. Rev. William Barber will present a program on the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economically vulnerable called, American Crisis: Poverty and the Pandemic. Reid and Barber discuss the impetus behind the coming special, which airs on Sunday, May 31 at 9 pm ET on MSNBC. All this and more in this Sunday edition of AM JOY on MSNBC.
